I'm thinking about a GPS for my Mom and Dad. My Dad has diabetes and can't see well enough to drive or read a map any more. This frustrates my Mom who now has only herself to blame when they get lost. They don't travel out of town a lot, but frequently meet with friends for dinner, a movie, or a play.(Apparently never in the same place twice.) They'll need the most simple model out there. It doesn't need a bunch of features, because they'll never use them. The more on-line reviews I read about them, the more confused I become. Anyone have an opinion on them? Thanks!!

I started to order one on line. I went by my parents and asked my Mom if she thought my dad still wanted one. A friend of theirs had sent them one. Sooo, it was back to the drawing board. I am going to get one for my wife though, and it looks like Garmin gets the best reviews. Thanks folks, and a Merry Christmas to you all!
